T TOUR IN SAN DIEGO – Day 4

The total mileage was less today, just 44 miles, but it took all day.  And Maria designated today as Western Day, so we all trotted out our horsey clothes, some a little more horsey than others. tn_DSC07125 First stop was Old Town San Diego. tn_DSC07142 Great mix of old Victorians and Spanish style structures. Visited the Mormon Battalion Museum, and Bill became a Mormon Battalion Volunteer. (If you never heard of the Mormon Battalion, like me, look it up, very interesting.)tn_DSC07132

Great Mexican lunch,,,,,tn_DSC07140 After lunch, we drove up to the Mt. Soledad War Memorial for fallen veterans.  tn_DSC07145 Then a visit to Point Loma Lighthouse, forgot to take any pictures, the vistas were so vast, I forgot to even take the camera out. Finished the day off at a BBQ hosted by Ernie Roeder’s daughter, Cindy, and her husband, Jim, who live here in San Diego.  We had a little toast, “Here’s to you, Lucy”.  You Model T folks know who we mean, don’t you? tn_DSC07152 

We even had a little song fest. Ed played his guitar and we sang along.  So we only covered 44 miles, but we sure covered a lot of bases today.  And tomorrow, we all become swabbies.

  And by the way, Troed, THE SNAKE LIVES!!!!!!tn_DSC07122
